Referring now to accompanying drawing, unrestriced embodiment of the present invention is described more completely.The present invention may be implemented as many different forms, and is not appreciated that and only only limits to the embodiment that sets forth here.On the contrary, provide these disclosed embodiment so that the disclosure is thoroughly and completely, and scope of the present invention is conveyed to those skilled in the art completely.Can be without departing from the scope of the invention, change with many embodiment in adopt principle of the present invention and feature.
In addition, may not can describe or illustrate known or widely used technology, element, structure and process in detail to avoid fuzzy essence of the present invention.Although accompanying drawing represents one exemplary embodiment of the present invention, accompanying drawing not necessarily in proportion and some feature can be exaggerated or ignore to illustrate preferably and illustrate the present invention.
When starting, description is provided to the system of digital broadcast service.Fig. 1 shows the figure of the configuration of digital broadcast service system according to an embodiment of the invention.
With reference to figure 1, digital broadcast service system comprises and sends the service provider server 100 (service server) of digital broadcast content and from the digit broadcasting receiver 200 (receiver) of service server 100 receiving digital broadcast contents.
Service server 100Cong content provider obtains content and sends such content to terminal use.In the situation of certain content (that is, paying content), the encryption (for example, scrambling) that service server 100 is carried out content is to prevent uncommitted access.If user buys some and pays content, service server 100 sends the control word (CW) of the deciphering (for example, descrambling) that is used for content to user's receiver 200 by authorization control message (ECM).
In addition, service server 100 sends plurality of kinds of contents by transport stream (TS), content correlated information (for example, ECM, PSI/SI (PSI/SI), electronic service guidebooks (ESG) etc.) and user related information (for example, entitlement management message (EMM) etc.).Particularly, when linking with ECM, send control word.During when 100 pairs of program components of service server (that is, video, audio frequency, data etc.) scrambling and when 200 pairs of program descramblings of receiver, can use control word.Here, before sending, use control word scrambling certain content (for example, paying broadcast).
In addition, service server 100 can provide the gift token that can be used for buying specific payment content.That is to say, service server 100 can provide the gift token of authorized user free access certain content.
Particularly, service server 100 sends the information about content-control access criteria together with content.Content-control access criteria can refer to for controlling the standard of receiver 200.In content-control access criteria, there are three functions.First, content-control access criteria can lock or the control function of release receiver 200.The second, content-control access criteria can be to receiver 200 notice gift token supplies.The 3rd, content-control access criteria can so that receiver 200 can to user notification gift token, supply selectively.
When receiving above-mentioned transport stream, the packet identifier (PID) that receiver 200 is distributed to the conditional access table (CAT) in transport stream by use detects the EMM in the transport stream of reception.In addition the EMM that, receiver 200 is distributed to the PID of Program Map Table (PMT) in transport stream and the user of receiver 200 by use retrieves ECM from the transport stream receiving.Then receiver 200 retrieval of content access control criterion carry out the function of appointment according to content-control access criteria from ECM.
In the situation that paying content, receiver 200 by the conditional access characteristic in relatively more relevant with wanting accessed content ECM (for example, parental guidance grade, blockade, etc.) with (be for example stored in smart card, subscriber identity module (SIM) or universal subscriber identity module (USIM)) in about access qualification information, check user's access qualification.If user's access qualification goes through, receiver 200 is by using the control word descrambling stream (that is, video, audio frequency, data etc.) relevant with content.Decode and export the stream after descrambling.
The gift token that can provide by service server 100 as mentioned above, is bought and is paid content.For example, when the user of digital broadcasting moves certain content (, advertisement), can provide such gift token.
Because service server 100 is optional to the wire/wireless interface the understanding of the present invention that perhaps receiver 200 access services servers 100 pass through in receiver 200 sends, therefore will omit relevant description.
To describe transport stream in detail hereinafter.Fig. 2 shows the figure of transport stream according to an embodiment of the invention.
Broadcast service is based on fluidisation service according to an embodiment of the invention.For fluidisation service, service server 100 adopts transport stream or transmission stream packets.
Here by supposition transport stream, be Motion Picture Experts Group (MPEG) transmission stream packets, it comprises several data according to specific protocol, such as multi-protocol encapsulation (MPE), Internet protocol (IP), User Datagram Protoco (UDP) (UDP), real-time protocol (RTP) (RTP) and file transfers one-way transmission/access control list (FLUTE/ALC).Such data can comprise EMM, ECM and comprise conditional access table (CAT) and the PSI/SI of Program Map Table (PMT) table.
As mentioned above, when receiving transport stream, the PID that receiver 200 is distributed to CAT by use detects EMM, then by use, distributes to the PID of PMT and user's EMM retrieval ECM.Foregoing access control criterion descriptor is included in ECM.
Fig. 2 shows by it and sends by reference number 1 to 7 content of indication and the transport stream of ECM.
Content-control access criteria descriptor is inserted in each independent ECM and sends by transport stream.ECM comprises descrambling information, content-control access criteria descriptor and control word (for example, TEK).Traffic encryption key (TEK) represents " authority " for the flow data of decrypted transport stream.
As shown in the figure, service server 100 repeats to send ECM in transport stream, so receiver 200 can be at reception period fast access ECM.
Hereinafter by detailed description access control criterion descriptor.Provide table 1 and 2 below to show content-control access criteria descriptor according to an embodiment of the invention.
Table 1
Table 2
| Position # | ?7 | ?6 | ?5 | ?4 | ?3 | ?2 | ?1 | ?0 |
| Assignment | ?RSV | ?RSV | ?RSV | ?RSV | ?RSV | ?RSV | ?CP | ?LC |
Table 1 shows the example of content-control access criteria descriptor, and it has the length of eight.Content-control access criteria descriptor is for identifying for control the content-control information of the operation of receiver according to the execution of content.
Table 2 shows distributes to each example of the content-control access criteria descriptor of position separately.Content-control access criteria descriptor comprises locking control (LC) information and gift token supply (CP) information.As shown in table 2, LC information and CP information are distributed to respectively item 0 and 1.
To describe LC information and CP information in detail.
Fig. 3 illustrates the figure of LC according to an embodiment of the invention.
Fig. 3 shows the transport stream that sends ECM by it.As shown in the figure, between content, repeat at certain intervals to send ECM.Refer again to table 1 and 2, the LC position that service server 100 can content-control access criteria descriptor is set to " 0 " or " 1 ".Particularly, LC position " 0 " meaning is to control the release of function, and LC position " 1 " meaning is to control the locking of function.For example, if service server 100 LC positions are set to " 1 ", receiver 200 can not be controlled specific content, therefore should unconditionally export them.
While receiving ECM in transport stream, in the content-control access criteria descriptor of receiver 200 from ECM, retrieve LC position.Then, receiver 200 is according to the LC position locking of retrieval or the control function of release content.The in the situation that of locking, the user of receiver 200 can not use the control function such as broadcasting, time-out, F.F., rewind down etc.
For example, if " 1 " that LC position is set to be indicated by reference number 301, user can not be under controlling the blocked situation of function by use the control function the F.F. (FF) in receiver 200 skip subsequent content 303.
Alternatively, if user is by using the control function such as F.F. to skip foregoing 303, can force receiver 200 to turn back to the starting point of the content being skipped.
If " 0 " that LC position is set to be indicated by reference number 305, user can be in the situation that controlling function and being unlocked by freely using the control function broadcasting in receiver 200, time-out, F.F., rewind down etc. to control subsequent content 307.
Therefore, by LC position, control receiver 200, service server 100 can force user to watch the certain content such as advertisement.That is to say, when service server 100 LC positions are set to " 1 " and send particular advertisement, receiver 200 can not be skipped relevant part, thereby forces user's view content.
Fig. 4 illustrates the figure of CP according to an embodiment of the invention.
Fig. 4 shows the transport stream that sends ECM by it.As shown in the figure, between content, repeat at certain intervals to send ECM.Refer again to table 1 and 2, the CP position that service server 100 can content-control access criteria descriptor is set to " 0 " or " 1 ".Particularly, CP position " 0 " meaning is not granting of gift token, and CP position " 1 " meaning is granting of gift token.That is to say, in the situation that be provided for the gift token of certain content, service server 100 CP positions are set to " 1 ".In the situation that not providing any gift token, service server 100 CP positions are set to " 0 ".
When receiving ECM in transport stream, in the content-control access criteria descriptor of receiver 200 from ECM, retrieve CP position.According to the CP position of retrieval, receiver 200 can determine whether to grant gift token for certain content.Here, for certain content, grant gift token and can be called as metering (metering) service.
For example, if " 1 " that CP position is set to be indicated by reference number 401, receiver 200 identifies, and grants gift token when operation subsequent content 403.
If " 0 " that CP position is set to be indicated by reference number 405, receiver 200 identifies, and does not exist for the gift token that subsequent content 407 is granted.
Now, receiver 200 can show user knows gift token supply whether notice.In addition, the combination that such notice can be based on LC position and CP position.
Provide table 3 below so that the operation of receiver 200 in each combination of LC and CP position to be according to an embodiment of the invention shown.
Table 3
Reference table 3, when the LC position retrieving from ECM is " 1 ", it controls function receiver 200 lockings.On the other hand, when LC position is " 0 ", receiver 200 does not lock or its control function of release.
In addition, when the CP position retrieving from ECM is " 1 ", receiver 200 identifies grants gift token.On the other hand, when CP position is " 0 ", receiver 200 identifies does not grant gift token.
Particularly, as shown in table 3, at LC and CP position, be that in two kinds of situations of complete " 0 " or complete " 1 ", whether receiver 200 can grant gift token to user notification alternatively.
In addition, in the situation that LC and CP position are respectively " 1 " or " 0 ", receiver 200 can not know respectively whether grant gift token to user.
Meanwhile, in the situation that LC and CP position are respectively " 0 " or " 1 ", whether receiver 200 can always grant gift token to user notification.
But the combination of the LC shown in table 3 and CP position is only exemplary and should be considered to limit the present invention.Can expect any other combination.
Then, will the contents management method that use above-mentioned LC and CP position be described.
Fig. 5 shows the flow chart of contents management method according to an embodiment of the invention.
With reference to figure 5, service server 100 can send ECM and the content with content-control access criteria descriptor by transport stream.Here suppose that content is advertisement.
When receiving transport stream, in step 501, receiver 200 detects and retrieves ECM from transport stream.
Then in step 503, receiver 200 determines whether the LC position of the content-control access criteria descriptor in ECM is " 1 ".
If LC position is " 1 ",, in step 505, function is controlled in receiver 200 lockings.If it is locked to control function, in this step 505, the lock-out state of receiver 200 retentive control functions.
If LC position is " 0 ",, in step 507, receiver 200 is separated lock control function.If control function, be unlocked, in 507, the released state of receiver 200 retentive control functions.
Then,, in step 509, receiver 200 determines whether the CP position of the content-control access criteria descriptor in ECM is " 1 ".
If CP position is " 1 ",, in step 511, receiver 200 initialization are also carried out metering service.As mentioned above, the metering service meaning is, during content after operation has the ECM of CP position " 1 ", grants gift token.Preferably, such gift token can be stored in receiver 200.
Then, in step 513, whether receiver 200 can grant gift token to user notification.This notifying process 513 is optional and can depends on the combination of LC position and CP position, as mentioned above.
On the other hand, if CP position is " 0 ", in step 515, receiver 200 is not carried out metering service.If metering service is performed,, in step 515, receiver 200 stops metering service.
As previously mentioned, in an embodiment of the present invention, service server can force user to watch the certain content such as advertisement by LC position.In addition, if as watching the compensation of advertisement to grant gift token, service server can provide gift token to user notification by controlling receiver.Therefore, service supplier can realize ad margins by the control of receiver.
Particularly, can be by using the ECM sending with high recurrence rate to allow to control receiver according to contents controlling method of the present invention.Therefore can provide the service more more kinds of than traditional control method by content.
For example, some content in transport stream is divided into three parts, and, in the situation of the latter half of the first half of program, advertisement and program, service can be so that user only has the latter half that can watch program when he or she watches advertisement.In this case, gift token can be only for buying the latter half of program.
In addition, can authorize gift token to buy plurality of kinds of contents.In this case, if user obtains as the gift token of watching the compensation of certain content, this gift token can be for buying another specific content that pays.Be similar to such situation, according to digital broadcast service method of the present invention, can provide in many ways interactive services.
Although the present invention is specifically illustrated and is described with reference to one exemplary embodiment of the present invention, but those skilled in the art are to be understood that, in the situation that not departing from by the defined the spirit and scope of the present invention of appended claims, can make the various modifications in form and details to the present invention.
